Moose Peterson’s Air Remote TTL-N Review: “The TTL Is a Miracle!”

Moose Peterson is a dedicated photographer and educator who has spent years photographing endangered wildlife. Lately, however, Moose’s eyes have turned to aviation photography. For this shoot of the FM-2P Wildcat, Moose used his flash to bring life to the ambient light. Being a Nikon ambassador, Moose brought a Profoto B1 Off-Camera Flash and the recently released Air Remote TTL-N for Nikon to the shoot. Here is what he has to say about his new tools.

“I’d come up with this portrait idea a month prior to the shoot knowing I’d have the new Air Remote TTL-N remote unit for my favorite flash, the Profoto B1. The i-TTL system for the Profoto so fits my style of photography because I’m using the flash to bring life to the ambient light. The flash is the main light lighting the subject and the ambient being the fill light, setting the stage for the subject.

“The beauty of the Air Remote TTL-N from Profoto is the multi level of control you have over the light while using the computer in the camera!” Moose continues. “There are three channels so you can effectively change the output of lights on those three channels wirelessly and via TTL exposure control. At the same time, you can fine tune the output of each flash via its power control. It makes the power and simplicity of the Profoto B1 such a powerful creative lighting tool!”
